All three of these books are great to read for Dean Koontz fans.

HOUSE OF THUNDER has a young woman who wakes up in a hospital with little memory left to tell her who she is, where she is, where she came from, and what she is doing there. But soon, she begins to have visions (or she is actually seeing) four dark figures from her past. Now, the question is what do they want from her?

SHADOWFIRES has a woman who wants a divorce from her manianical husband, and he gets killed in a traffic accident on the day there supposed to get the divorce. A few days later, she is being stalked by someone or something that resembles her dead husband.

And MIDNIGHT finds the residents of a small town changing into beasts that act out there dreams and fantasies. Only a select few are left to battle a mysterious force that is chaging the town into a living hell.

Dean Koontz delivers and awesome trilogy of stories. It hits hard with THE HOUSE OF THUNDER. It begins very creepy, grabbing you from the first page. Next, and weakest (but still great) is SHADOWFIRES. It is a little slow to begin with, but quickly becomes fast paced and exciting. The last, MIDNIGHT, is probably the most creepy. Most of the resident of Moonlight Cove, California are changing . . . losing emotions, becoming animals. But what is causing it . . . and how will the few normal humans make it out when they become violent?

My mom always reads books.When was younger I always thought reading books was a waste of time.I could think of better ways to spend my time.One day someone gave me one of your books "The Voice of The Knight".That book got me hooked on your books.I couldnt stop reading them.I now have a collection of them.To this day I still think "The Voice of The Knight" is the best book you have ever written. I just wanted to say thank you for getting this teenager intrested in reading.

I love these collection of Koontz's classic older works. I own several of them myself, and love all of them. While none of the books in this collection can be considered to be Koontz's best work, they are still fun and worthwhile reads. Great for vacation time or a lazy afternoon.

If you're new too Koontz, this collection (as well as the others) are great places to start. Lot of suspense, lot of thrills, and he always creates the best villains. Not to mention it's hard to beat the price

Both of them are great books. Stephen King used to be my favorite writer until my brother introduced me to his books, and I'm glad he did. So far I have'nt found a single one of his books that are bad or that saunds good.

After reading Watchers, I couldn't wait to read another book written buy Koontz. That's why I decided to by three!. Unfortunatelly it wasn't a very good decision. The stories are boaring dificult to follow and wors, predictable! Should I swap to King?
